After years of research, developing and testing, Orange has designed a high powered solid state amp that sounds great! The Orange Crush CR120H Guitar Amplifier Head features 120 watts of pure Orange tone, a simple layout and two channels based on the prestigious Rockerverb range. The dirty channel uses a circuit based on 4 stages of gain and a 3-band EQ for great over-driven and distorted sounds. The Crush CR120H’s clean channel is based on a two stage, two band EQ design for a clean but warm sound which when cranked begins to break up, just like a Rockerverb!

Orange also gives the Crush CR120H head a transparent effects loop, allowing you to plug in your favorite guitar pedals to open the amplifier up to a wide variety of situations and playing styles. Finally, the amplifier contains an inbuilt digital reverb, providing the player with a natural sounding spring, hall or plate reverb.

Orange Crush CR120H Guitar Amplifier Head Features

120-watt solid state head with classic Orange tone and looks

Two channel design for a wide range of clean, overdriven and distorted sounds

Playing at bedroom volumes the dirty channel is kind of fizzy. When you open it up this beast really sings and has that Orange sound I get from my OR. This amp hands down is the best sounding solid state I've heard. This is analog, so don't go and compare it to some shitty digital amp because its, apples and Oranges.

Decent solid state amp.

What is your opinion of this product?

Not a bad amp for under $500. Decent clean tones and the distortion isn't too heavy. The reverb sounds cool and being that it's 100 watt, it can get loud!

Great amp

What is your opinion of this product?

I first played an OR15 and got hooked to the Orange tone. After watching a number of Youtube demo's I purchased it and play it through an Orange 212 cabinet. Great Orange tone, responsive to picking attack and accepts pedals well. I have since also purchased the Orange 35LDX amp for both practice and rehearsals. Music styles- pop, blues, jazz. Guitars- Tele, Strat, Gretch Nashville & Ibanez AS83. All sound great for what I do with that Orange vibe.

No good for metal

What is your opinion of this product?

I play in a metal band. I was looking for a reasonably priced amp to replace my Line 6 Spider 3, and this amp does not cut it. I've had it for a week and the more I tweak it the more I realize I made a mistake by purchasing it. There is literally nothing I can do to add color or richness to the tone of this amp. It is bland, dull, and boxy no matter how you adjust the knobs or what kind of pedals/etc you add.

Well Built Solid State Amp - Glad I Waited!

Your general opinion of this product.

First Orange product that I have ever purchased and I have known about Orange for a while now. I played the OR15 at a local music store but it had the orange covering. I did some looking on the web and found out that they were available in the black tolex covering also. I ordered the CR120H, without ever playing through it, based on the quality and sound of the OR15 and even though it wasn't tube, I was very impressed. Global master volume and reverb controls, separate volume and eq. controls for each channel plus effect loop option. Switches feel solid, tough metal amp chassis, knobs and jacks feel tight and solid - NO looseness. 3 different built reverb settings via the 3 way mini toggle switch and NO headphone jack on this one, which can't short out and cause your speaker to cut in and out, which was a common problem that I had on another companies amp that had a poor quality 1/8" jack. I see why Orange waited to get on the solid state amp wagon - They wanted to do it right.
